Irina Shayk flashes a hint of cleavage in a plunging white trouser suit as she enjoys a solo night out at Porcelanosa event


Irina Shayk soaked up the sun in Atlantic City, New Jersey with her boyfriend Bradley Cooper - and his mother - over Labor Day weekend.


The 29-year-old Russian model was still glowing as she set off - without her actor beau - to attend the grand opening of the Porcelanosa flagship showroom in New York City on Wednesday.
Irina sparked interest in a smooth, ivory pantsuit that displayed her daring decolletage and her gorgeously deep tan.


She wore her mahogany-hued hair straight and parted off-centre, perhaps to better show off her stunning high cheekbones and ravishing smile.
Irina was joined by a male friend at the event, which also served to raise funds for the Madison Square Park Conservancy.
The brunette beauty highlighted her creamy white ensemble with bright green heels, which matched her handbag.


On Saturday, Irina sent temperatures soaring in a yellow bikini as she frolicked on the Atlantic City beach with her swimsuit-clad beau Bradley.
Bradley also brought his mother Gloria Campano along for the trip, making it a friendly trio.
While Irina continued to turn heads in her direction, a silver-haired Richard Gere also caused a bit of pleasant stir.


he 66-year-old American Gigolo star was a centre of attention as he mingled with Spanish-Filipina socialite Isabel Preysler and writer Mario Vargas Llosa.
Gere looked handsome in a black suit and white dress shirt with no tie.
His perfectly coiffed hair shone silvery-white in the waning afternoon light as he strolled down the red carpet towards the venue.

Europe migrant crisis: Hungary 'will arrest illegal migrants'


Hungary's PM has warned that people who cross the country's border illegally will be arrested from next week.
Viktor Orban said migrants entering Hungary in their thousands in the past weeks had "rebelled" against his police force, and order had to be restored.
Aid workers have been telling of "abysmal" conditions for refugees at a camp on the Hungarian-Serbian border.
Video footage has emerged of people being thrown bags of food at the camp in the town of Roszke.
Hungary has struggled to cope with some 150,000 migrants that have crossed its borders so far this year, en route from Greece to countries in northern and western Europe.
There have been tensions between the authorities and migrants, at border areas and key railway stations.
Hungary has insisted it is trying to fulfil its obligations as an EU member and register all new arrivals, but its attempts to control the flow - such as building a fence along its border with Serbia and staging border protection exercises - have proved controversial.
Mr Orban has now warned that tougher immigration laws will take effect from 15 September and anyone crossing the border illegally could expect to be arrested.
He praised the police for doing a "remarkable" job "without force" in the face of unco-operative migrants who, he said, had "rebelled against Hungarian legal order".

New James Bond film Spectre boosts Pinewood Studio profits to a record high

UPCOMING James Bond film Spectre has helped boost Pinewood Studios' profits to a record high over the last year.

Production on the 24th film, starring Daniel Craig as 007, as well as blockbusters such as the forthcoming Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens and Avengers: Age Of Ultron increased the Pinewood Group's revenue by 17% from 64.1 million to 75 million over the year to March 31.
Operating profit increased from 4.9 million to 5.8 million due to the growth in the studio's film business, with its studios in the UK, Toronto, Atlanta, Dominican Republic and Malaysia.
However, TV revenues for the year were down from 6.2 million to 5.8 million.
Ivan Dunleavy, Pinewood Group CEO, said: "Pinewood is a uniquely positioned independent operator and has once again delivered strong growth.
"As our core business has grown we have expanded the range of services for the screen-based industries. We are seeing encouraging results from this strategy. Our growing presence internationally continues to deliver clear benefits."
A major expansion programme is under way to add new facilities, including 10 large stages with supporting workshops, production offices and infrastructure.
"Although we have hosted the three largest film productions of the year, being Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens, Avengers: Age Of Ultron and the 24th Bond film Spectre, we continue to be unable to meet all the demand from large films. This will be partly addressed by the first phase of the Pinewood expansion," Mr Dunleavy said.
Spectre, once again directed by Skyfall film-maker Sam Mendes, also stars Andrew Scott, Christoph Waltz and Lea Seydoux alongside returning cast members Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw and Rory Kinnear, and will be released in the UK on October 23.
The new Star Wars movie is directed by JJ Abrams and features a host of British talent such as John Boyega, Andy Serkis, Gwendoline Christie and Daisy Ridley. It will open in UK cinemas on December 18.
Marvel's Avengers: Age Of Ultron conquered the UK and global box offices when it was released in April.
Joss Whedon's sequel to 2012's Avengers Assemble, starring Robert Downey Jr, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans and Jeremy Renner, recorded the biggest opening weekend of 2015 until it was toppled by Jurassic World.
